Politics as a Spectator Sport

By Ted Rall

Another year in Iraq, another thousand dead soldiers. This grim milestone passed as the wasteful nature of the carnage finally registered with the public; only nine percent of Americans, "dead-enders" in Rumsfeld-speak, still think the war was a wonderful idea.

Why the US Is Not Leaving Iraq

By Ismael Hossein-zadeh

It is crucially important that public attention is shifted away from the confining official narrative of the war, parroted by the corporate media and political pundits, to the economic crimes that have been committed because of this war, both in Iraq and here in the United States. It is time to make a moral case for restoring Iraqi oil and other assets to the Iraqis.

100,000 mercenaries, the forgotten "Surge"

By Barry Lando

What is striking about the current debate in Washington - whether to "surge" troops to Iraq and increase the size of the U.S. Army - is that roughly 100,000 bodies are missing from the equation: The number of American forces in Iraq is not 140,000, but more like 240,000.

The Troop Surge Debate

by David Brownlow

Our politicians are playing right along with the game, grandstanding on the issue while haggling over meaningless deployment numbers. They all know that even if we could find the additional troops, sending them into Iraq would only lead to more death and destruction on both sides......
